The War Machine

[Heinz Dahler]

I am most definitely a proud American. Merry Christmas.

Eine kleine Nazi schweine.

Eine kleine Nazi schweine.

Ich in Hochschule für zwei Jahren Deutsche gelernt. Ich spreche ein bischen. Neuschwanstien was crazy wild. Minds falter in spectacular ways.

Edit: Sometimes it's innocuous, even beautiful, like Beethoven's late string quartets. Sometimes it's Hitler and Trump.

Earlier ones.

...because the Nazis were also proud Americans? lol so misguided, please re-read your history. The proud Americans destroyed the Nazis and freed the internment camp occupants.

You mean Hitler and Hillary. Both offered hatred of the opposition as a way to gain power. Remember the street protests that Hillary never criticized or opposed and how they lead to riots?

Jews, such a scourge. Oy vey!

My dad showed me my grandpa's resume. I scanned it and asked him why his religion was on it. He said, "Back then, you had to show that you weren't Jewish."

The past of nations is often dark, especially if you seem to be sliding back. Light shines in the darkness, shaded by hate. Hate can be powerful, especially if the greenback-rich have realigned for political favoritism. Candlepower please!

I guess you missed the years those have printed on them...

An American soldier and liberated prisoners of the Mauthausen concentration camp. Austria, May 1945
This is what I am proud of, you can be proud of the photos you posted if you wish, it is a free country, just don't expect me to be understanding of your views.

Jews and Roma and Slavs and handicapped people and...

My response was to this statement of yours: "because the Nazis were also proud Americans?"

Yes, a bunch of them were (and apparently a bunch still are). Thankfully most weren't (and aren't now).

And "my views"? wtf?

I have Irish and French blood. The French!

I don't think he said that there were never any Nazis in America. But you certainly seemed determined to refute a point he didn't make, with lots and lots of photos no less.

Hey look, one of the most prominent intellectuals who influenced Nazi anti-semitic and racist ideology was an Englishman named Houston Stewart Chamberlain.

I found it necessary to point that out, because, you know, of all the people who were saying that there never were any racists or anti-semites in Britain.

Feel better now?

I remember hearing them in the Sierra, sometimes seeing them, high altitude jets at presumably very high altitudes. Two last night. A unique low to mid frequency pierce rushing from one ear to the other. There are men and women up there steering these huge machines at outrageous speeds. Their role is to bomb, or to dogfight, or to deter, or to watch, maybe all four in one fuselage. Impressive tech, sad endings.
